I had my own bookkeeping business back in Melbourne. I found my clients by working with an Accountant who's clients needed bookkeepers. Took a bit of calling around to find an Accountant willing to recommend me. Many have their own in house bookkeepers they send out or had enough contract ones already.

Some work was ongoing, some was just one or two sessions in order to set-up them up in QB or Myob. I found in most cases I worked on site on their computer with their software. If they are tech savvie enough, you can sometime work from home by dialing into their system, especially if most of their paperwork is electronic. So a good net connection is vital.

You can look into preferred provider with QB or MYOB, this can help with the cost of software if you need to provide the package. There are also bookkeeping franchises.
