A few thoughts:
1) Someone already mentioned SCORE, I would definetly look into working with one of their counselors, but I have found they tend to be more general business (which you probably also need) as opposed to specific issues in your industry.
2) Read the book "E-Myth". It talks a lot about making the move from technical work to being a business owner. Sounds like you are starting to run into issues with the whole "work on your business vs work in your business" thing.
3) Is there a professional association in your line of work that you can join? A lot of them have resources for starting businesses. You may also be able to network with a retired person, or, a person in a market that doesn't compete with yours, that you can bounce ideas off of.
4) On some of the things such as finance, marketing, can you outsource these?
