yeah i would forget about a that " Big Studio " stuff.. its done bro.
It all about you and your set up, whether it be a small bedroom or
a converted massive home studio w/ hardwood floors racks of gear.. whatever the case, you can do the same in both.

there's a couple a things I would recommend

Get out and meet local bands, artist.. bars/clubs/coffeshops. find out whos wants to produce, record, mix or master there stuff. Tell them what you do, be confident and do the first song for very little money or even free just to get the ball rolling. also look in Criagslist and also put add on craigslist. eventually you will find yourself getting $100 $ 200 $ 300 sessions at a time. take on jobs, do co- productions. dont think you have to do everything by yourself, if you good at one thing sell that as your strong point while working with other producer/engineers

live sound, there's always live sound gigs around. that will help compliment
studio work.

Anyway yeah its back to the basics. you and your skills
