Some of the highlights of his time there include one of the first SMS and Internet-based mobile campaigns of the Coca-Cola Company in 2001, which has been used a model by many countries. In 2003 he initiated Turkey’s biggest open-air music festival (Rock ’n Coke) and created a rich marketing program around it. The festival received the Coca-Cola Worldwide Marketing Excellence Award. In 2007 it celebrated its fifth year receiving over 50 hours of TV coverage per year, additional income from ticket sales and numerous sponsors and delivering significant volume uplift while hosting over 200 well-known acts in the course of 5 years.

    Özaydinli’s expertise is a good combination of brand management, e-marketing and entertainment marketing. He is Coke’s in-house music expert and keeps working with global Coca-Cola brand teams on his biggest passion – Music – to deliver best-in-class music marketing programs.

    Jeff Rabhan, CEO, Three Ring Projects

    Three Ring Projects partner Jeff Rabhan is an experienced artist manager and music-industry executive and consultant. He discovered, shopped and oversaw the signing of multi-platinum pop-rocker Michelle Branch, among many others, and helps guide the careers of emerging and established acts like acclaimed American Idol finalist Elliott Yamin, chart-topping R&B siren Lil’ Kim and urban-music hit-maker Jermaine Dupri.

    In his various capacities as manager, partner in entertainment company The Firm, soundtrack executive for Atlantic and Elektra Records, consultant and columnist, Rabhan has proved an innovator on multiple fronts. He has worked closely with leading top-tier acts such as Kelly Clarkson, Jennifer Lopez, Korn and Enrique Iglesias; helped develop the soundtracks to blockbuster films like Scream; assisted in the exploitation of The Doors’ catalog of rock classics; and contributed to such publications as Rolling Stone and HITS.

    Born in Savannah, Ga., and raised in Richmond, Va., Rabhan received a journalism degree from New York University. Shortly after graduating, he began writing for Rolling Stone. Not long thereafter he joined the staff of Atlantic Records and ultimately served as Senior Director of A&R and Soundtracks. Elektra Records subsequently named him Executive Director in Charge of Soundtracks. During this period he oversaw such releases as the Batman, Beautiful Girls and Four Rooms OSTs, among many other discs.

    Rabhan briefly but productively worked as an independent music supervisor and A&R consultant, discovering, shopping and signing superstar pop trio Hanson – who sold 20 million records worldwide and whose music and likenesses have generated $250 million+ in global receipts – and working on the successful Scream movie soundtrack.

    He spent five years as a partner at top entertainment company The Firm before launching his own management concern, Three Ring Projects. The new entity embraces multiple media and such platforms as fashion and other lifestyle products.

    At Three Ring, he has helped parlay Yamin’s Idol visibility into the biggest chart debut by a new artist on an independent label in the history of SoundScan. He has also taken the career reins of Grammy-nominated artist Kelis as well as Jermaine Dupri, one of the architects of contemporary urban music. In addition, he’s collaborated with The Doors Music Company in the creative re-purposing of The Doors’ catalog, imagery and other elements for today’s audiences.

    He lives and works in Los Angeles.
