Setting up a software services business comes at a hefty expense of time, energy, effort, patience, and perseverance. It's advisable to have a solutions around your set of services. If you don't have any such solution credentials then building one should be your top priority.

As far as new projects is concerned, it's good to seek projects through freelancing websites as long as you don't make that your habit. Because, you are out there to establish a business venture and not end up being a freelancer. Also, it's easier to bag projects as freelancer, due to obvious cost advantage, but the scenario is exactly opposite for agencies. So, make sure you invest enough time to think and plan around your business model, growth strategy, and log-short term planning.
