Setting sales goals and tracking progress

2 min read · Updated Jul 17, 2026

Sales goals give your team a target and a visible line of progress toward it, right where they already work — Sales Home — instead of a spreadsheet someone updates once a month.

Who can set a goal

Setting or changing a goal is a sales-leadership action — a Sales Manager, a Tenant Admin, or anyone with the sales-leadership toggle turned on. An Account Executive can watch their own progress but can't author or move a goal themselves. This is enforced at the database layer as well as in the interface, so it isn't just a hidden button.

Goal types

Current supports goals against ten different metrics, covering both activity and revenue:

  • First appointments and total appointments booked
  • One-time revenue and MRR added
  • New-logo MRR, expansion MRR, and renewal MRR retained
  • Deals won
  • Pipeline created
  • Activities logged

Individual vs. team goals

A goal can target one Account Executive specifically, or the whole sales team at once. Team goals roll up everyone's numbers against a single shared target — useful for a quarterly team push alongside individual quotas.

Setting a goal

  1. 1
    Open Sales Home
    As a Sales Manager or Admin, you'll see the team goals panel.
  2. 2
    Choose a metric and a target
    Pick from the ten supported metric types and set the number to hit.
  3. 3
    Assign it to a rep or the whole team
    Leave it unassigned for a team-wide goal.
  4. 4
    Set the period
    Save it — progress starts tracking against your existing activity and deal data immediately, no backfilling needed.

Where progress shows up

Every Account Executive sees their own goal progress on their Sales Home. A goal-progress band also appears for every CRM user regardless of role — a deliberate exception so the whole team can see how close the org is to target, even if only leadership can change the number. Sales leadership additionally sees a full team goals panel and the AE Scorecard report for a per-rep breakdown. See "The Current CRM: companies, deals, and the Sales Home" for the rest of what's on that page.
