About us
Who we are
Our story:
OKNO Investments LLC, founded by Gilberto Marcano, has a rich history of innovation and growth. It all began in 2009 as Psych Interactive Studios, when we started as a web and video production studio, capturing the attention of businesses eager to embrace the burgeoning mobile era.
This period marked a significant shift in user behavior, as mobile devices became a staple in daily life, driving a high demand for mobile-friendly web solutions.
In the early days, our clients primarily sought websites to tell their stories. However, as mobile usage soared, these websites quickly evolved into essential business extensions, vital for capturing the attention of users who were increasingly searching and purchasing via their mobile devices.
This change prompted us to adapt and innovate, leading to the creation of not just static websites, but dynamic eCommerce platforms, lead-generation sites, and captivating video animations that delivered outstanding results for our clients.
Under the visionary leadership of Gilbert, our team has garnered numerous awards for our cutting-edge designs and impactful digital solutions. Over the past decade, we have served more than 250 clients across North America and Hispanic markets, honing our ability to pivot strategies effectively, identify the optimal time to go-to-market, and prioritize what matters most for each niche.
Our journey has led us to evolve beyond just providing services. We now create our own digital products and leverage this knowledge to benefit hand-selected businesses that align with our vision for growth.
Despite our evolution, our mission remains steadfast: to empower business owners, CEOs, and marketing executives with the ultimate toolkit to not just compete, but to truly dominate their respective marketplaces.
Our diverse portfolio of companies is designed to support business leaders at every stage of their entrepreneurial journey. Whether you are an established company looking to scale or just getting started with your LLC, we are here to provide the expertise and strategies you need to succeed.
From our roots in web and video production to our current role as a comprehensive business growth partner, OKNO Investments LLC is dedicated to driving success and innovation for our clients.

Meet Gilbert, our founder and the friendly face you’ll likely see first in our videos or when you start working with us. With over a decade of experience transforming small companies into national and international successes, Gilbert has generated millions for big corporations. This journey inspired him to help local business owners grow their businesses using his proven strategies.
“My career began in visual communications, where I worked for ad agencies in the early 2000s. This gave me exposure to various industries and the chance to learn from industry veterans. In 2009, I founded PsychInteractive.com as a web and video studio. Since then, I’ve evolved with the industry, adapting my services to focus on what truly works, rather than just my personal preferences.
That’s what sets our services apart. For instance, some companies chase vanity metrics like followers and likes, while we prioritize what really matters: attracting, converting, and retaining customers. The same principle applies to video production, where the focus is now on video retention and engaging online users with shorter attention spans.
I feel incredibly blessed in my professional career and it’s an honor to serve great entrepreneurs and professionals. I’ve built long-term business relationships that are mutually beneficial and enduring.” – Gilberto Marcano, Founder and Principal Digital Consultant.
Gilbert is also a thought leader at Forbes Business Development Council and the founder of Psych Interactive Studios, MediaGrowthGurus.com, GuidedBizGrowth.com, and VideoContentCloud.com. A dedicated father and husband, Gilbert focuses on working with hand-selected businesses, aiming to acquire customers and drive their growth.
Yes, we are an award winning business, so what?
We’ve won several awards and we don’t care about that. We only care about the results we can deliver to our partners and the impact on our communities.
