Owner development for businesses under $2M

Grow the owner.
Then the business.

Clino measures the owner behind the business: their judgment, their numbers, and how much growth their life, capital and time can carry. Your advisor runs the CAVU system with you. The network handles the specialist work.

01

Measured, not guessed

327 questions across 15 sections read the owner's acumen in every part of the business, scored the same way by every certified advisor.

02

Cleared before you climb

Ten clearance gates check margin, cash, personal guarantees, hours and household runway. Growth runs only at the pace your life can carry.

03

One plan, two years

Six meetings over 90 days build a 2-year playbook: foundations first, the weakest sections next, and a review at month 24.

04

Network first

Specialist work goes to one network: holistic, less expensive and faster. An outside provider is always your option.

Three readings. One honest answer.

HOLD

Hold short

Not yet. Fix these first so growth isn't paid for with your savings, hours or family.

MAINTAIN

Maintain

Hold altitude. Keep building the base, and clear the amber gates.

CLIMB

Cleared to climb

Your numbers and your life can carry growth. Climb in measured steps.

A process forged over decades of hands-on business development, run by your advisor and carried out through one network.
