I'm also an introvert. For my first startup I used to go to meetups etc to try to network and get business. It got me nowhere and it was draining. I don't want to discourage you but there may be more efficient ways to get in touch with potential clients. Take a look at "Never Eat Alone" (Keith Ferrazzi). Written by a guy whose whole life is built around connecting with people and is very skeptical about networking events. In any case, yes it does get easier. These days I do a lot of cold emailing and video calls and even that used to be difficult for me.
