Work the plugs back and forth, also helps to have the engine a little warm. Chemicals can also be your friend. PB Blaster works good for me.

If you have access to compressed air, be sure to blow the trapped debris from around the spark plug, then liberally douse it with PB Blaster. It's also preferable to remove those pesky metal spark plug tubes from around each spark plug to keep debris from collecting and causing the issue you're experiencing. Those metal spark plug tubes are useless and can be thrown away, as they do more harm than good..
