I started out by emailing people who post in the monthly "looking for freelancer" threads here on HN. Sometimes even job boards.
Although lately a much better model has turned out to be having a "Email me if you need a freelancer" link on my blog - produces, on average, one email per week. All from americans since that's where most of my traffic comes from.
