  Becky Thompson, property manager at the Bell Tower Shops, praises the activity, "It not only helps the charities and us, it also encourages working relations with other sponsors, encouraging future cooperative efforts on other projects.All up, it is one of our most successful marketing activities."
  
  One of the more impressive forms of cause-related marketing is sponsorship of a major event.Jazz on the Green, for example, which also benefits the Children's Hospital, would not have been created if not for cause-related marketing.Jazz on the Green has become one of the most eagerly anticipated and well-attended performance events in Southwest Florida.Many companies have contributed their efforts and cash in support of the event's success.

  Becky Thompson, general manager of Bell Tower Shops, said Delphia's is a perfect match for the upscale customers at the shopping center.
  
  From surveys at the shopping center, and telephone surveys, Thompson said the shopping center's customers average twice the income of shoppers at other locations.
  
  "The income level is over $100,000 a year," she said.
  
  Delphia's has higher-end merchandise, and that is what shoppers at Bell Tower Shops are looking for, Thompson said.
  
  Bell Tower Shops will be celebrating its 25th anniversary this winter season.
  
  Thompson said there are no current plans for expansion, but there are some thoughts being considered.
  
  "You're only limited by your imagination and your money you know," Thompson said.
  
  Since the shopping center is surrounded by development, horizontal expansion is probably not feasible.
  
  "We would have to go with garage parking if we did anything," she said.

  With newspapers and especially magazines advertisers must plan in advance, says Becky Thompson, property manager and marketing director for Bell Tower Shops.They might not be able to accommodate an ad for a short-term event, but radio is more timely.Radio is a flexible medium.They can get something on at the last minute, she says.
  
  Thompson gears Bell Tower's advertising to women ages 18 to 60 who have a good bit of spending power, a demographic that listens to the smooth jazz on WDRR, Dream 98.5. One of the most effective promotions, she says, is the Friday Fest, which takes place the last Friday of each month.Designed as fund-raisers for a local charity, they feature live music – of the same sort that appeals to WDRR listeners – as well as beer and wine.WDRR does a remote and the Friday Fest often attracts some 600 people.it be very effective for the retailers, she says, although an ad's impact usually is much more difficult to gauge.Many times, she says, it be not immediate.They may come in three or four weeks later to check you out..
  
  ...
  Thompson knew that a recent sidewalk sale at Bell Tower Shops would attract not only the usual market, but bargain shoppers from a variety of demographics.We customized the ads and spread it over seven stations, she says.Besides the usual jazz station, they advertised on adult contemporary, oldies, country, and pop stations.A lot of people from a lot of walks of life heard about the sidewalk sale and turned out.
  
  In choosing where to advertise, Thompson puts a lot of faith in the Arbitron ratings.Radio is one medium where you can target your profile customer, she says, and stations can provide advertisers with ratings and profiles of their listeners.They can prove to you that they do or do not reach that market..
  
  Others, however, warn against leaning too heavily on the ratings.Ratings are determined by people in the market chosen randomly by Arbitron.They keep diaries detailing what they have listened to and when, and Arbitron extrapolates the ratings from those diaries according to age, gender, spending ability, and other qualifiers.
