I told everyone I knew about my business idea and had lunch with everyone they knew who might be interested in the business for any reason. Also, I hit networking events in my area that attract entrepreneurs. I live in Boston so there are many. Then, I worked to maintain relationships with the most interesting people I met.
My goal was to forge business relationships and eventually find a business partner. Finding a business partner is like dating. You need to spend enough time on it to find the right partner for you and your business.
It took a long time (more than a year) but eventually I found a partner.
If you are uncomfortable with the idea of deliberate networking, you can find a ton of useful info on the net to help you get started.
