The good ol' fashioned "You all meet in a tavern, answering a poster offering gold for help..."? The action-scene, "You're all engaged in mutual mundane task, when suddenly a band of thugs/goblins/whatever bust in looking for the plot coupon and chaos breaks out"? The "Elder Scrolls classic" - all being prisoners thrown in together? Tie it in to a character's backstory and let them lead the other party members in?

What have you found interesting or successful, and why?

The adventurers wake up together in the Nine Hells after being killed. First quest gives them a chance to get out of hell by Satan.

Also serves the other way. If you ever tpk the party, they can wake up in hell instead of ending the campaign.
