Questions

I have most of the skills required to lead a team and operate my business, however it is going to be difficult to get funding with only one founder. I need somebody with a recognized business background. I am currently living in a small rural area which would require finding somebody from outside my region and working with them remotely.

There are three sources that I'd recommend for you. First, find your local Startup Grind in the nearest participating city (https://www.startupgrind.com/) - go to an event and network there for a co-founder. Second, take a look at advertising on AngelList (https://angel.co/) for your co-founder. Finally check out the National Venture Capital Association to see if there is a regional group that you can network into for a co-founder (http://nvca.org/ecosystem/regional-groups/). Good luck with your search. Feel free to set up a call if you'd like to brainstorm other solutions.
