Depends on where you are, but I work remotely on my own during the day and then have a meeting at the end of my day (around 7pm for me) and beginning of their day (9am for them) to touch base. We skip that meeting a lot and just communicate via issue tracker.
You can make it work, but it's important for me to not work "american hours" because I'm asleep by then. Try to focus on the 1 hour of overlap somewhere.
And in my experience potential clients are very weird about the whole travel abroad thing. They think I'm less committed or escaped the zoo or something so I have to show them that I have the same level of commitment remotely as if I'd showed up at their office.
