One sure-fire method for hour building is to continue the money-pit approach.
Another is (or was, don't know if it still happens), like the place I learnt at in Sydney (PPL), for a new CPL to do the odd flying jobs to get to 200 hours, then you got onto the R44 and B206.
John Fraser did well that way, as did the other guys, but I don't know if it is guaranteed.
[Edit: I did my PPL there, saw the new CPL(H)s doing this, didn't do it myself].
