As another member stated you should be networking business to business since this will be where the vast majority of your business will come from. Most communities will have a chamber functions (IE after hours networking) for their members that will provide opportunities for you to meet local business owners and pass out business cards. Since you are in a competitive market doing the first few jobs at a discount or cost will be key to you getting the first few jobs. This will also be a way for you to get some word of mouth advertising and examples of your work to put on your website/ social media. Good Luck!!
