# Goals and streaks

Source: https://social9.com/docs/agency/goals-and-streaks

> Set a weekly posting goal per brand, see this week's progress, and keep your streak of weeks that hit the goal.

A posting goal is how many posts a brand should publish each week, and your streak is how many weeks in a row you hit it.

**Which plan:** All plans.

---

## Where to find it

**Dashboard → Agency → Goals & best times**, under **Weekly goal**. Pick the brand at the top of the page first.

## How to set a goal

1. Press **Set goal** (or **Change** if you already have one).
2. Type how many posts a week, from 1 to 100.
3. Press **Save**.

Until you set one, Social9 suggests **3 posts a week**.

## How it counts

- A week runs **Monday to Sunday** in your workspace timezone.
- Each published post counts **once**, however many accounts it went to.
- Posts made in test mode don't count.

You see this week's posts against the goal, how many days are left, and a bar for each of the last 12 weeks. Weeks that hit the goal are green.

## Good to know

- Your streak counts the weeks in a row that hit the goal, up to last week. This week joins the streak as soon as you hit the goal.
- Miss a week and the streak starts again from zero. Your **best streak** in the last 12 weeks is shown too.
- Changing a goal needs permission to edit the brand. Without it you won't see **Set goal** or **Change**.
- Goals and streaks can go into a [report](https://social9.com/docs/agency/reports-and-white-label) with the **Posting goals** section.
- Connected AI apps can read goals and streaks with `goals_get`. See [Tools reference](https://social9.com/docs/ai-apps/tools-reference).
