There are 5 essential rules to get people to link to you
1. generate amazing content, that is a mix of unusual ideas as well as visual delight, that people couldn't help but to link to you. ( this is a no brainer)
2. Have a short and sweet promotions, with great prizes. Make sure you have exciting marketing materials to set the mood as well. a.g. example ( Office Summer Fest )
3. make a list of top 50-100 people, services, or whatever you are passionate about. You are sure to get links from that from similar people
4. At the end of your blog, include a small sentence asking people to link to you if they like your blog
5. Exude humor and positiveness. As people say, laughter is the best medicine, and in this case, the best cure-all, for even your lack of back link problems.

I like this list and am printing it out tonight. I think having a light-hearted approach is a super-great idea, as is making lists of great links and sites. I have only tried a promotion once, and didn't get much response. But maybe I need to try that again.
Thank you for the #4 suggestion. I have not done this at all, and might give it a try. Thanks for posting these!
