There is only one way to create goodwill. When a company is acquired for a price exceeding its book value, the difference is called goodwill.

This sounds very much like a question from a college business course.

Goodwill can be created in many ways. If you start a business and it becomes successful, you have created goodwill. It is basically the way a business is perceived by the public. Take any successful business and determine how it became successful. That can be by offering superior products(Jaguar), great service(H & R Block), or simply selling quality items for less than the competition(Wal-Mart).
Advertising is important, but it doesn't take the place of the other items.

Goodwill is not a physical thing, it is an intangible. If a business is successful, helping out in the community, satisfying customers beyond their expectations, that is goodwill. It isn't something that can be created in a day or a few weeks, it is earned over years.
