Jon Stead wants Notts County to be "in a really strong position" in the League Two table this time next week.
The Magpies finally claimed their first home win in the league after seeing off Leyton Orient 3-1 on Saturday, which has put them in ninth place.
This week will give Notts the chance to get six more points as they travel to Exeter City on Tuesday before welcoming Morecambe at Meadow Lane on Saturday.
"We knew it was going to be a big test because they are a good side and they will be up there," Stead said of Saturday's victory. "They've made some decent signings and they're a strong outfit.
"We're happy with the way we're going about things. We're picking up points, which is important.
"We go into a long week now, a long trip to Exeter, hopefully we can get points there. And then it's another big one on Saturday.
"We can be in a really strong position come the end of next week.
"The tension has been quite high since the start of the season at home because we've not performed.
"It's not so much the win, it's because we'd not performed very well.
"But we performed a lot better for longer periods on Saturday, which is pleasing."
