Explanation:
Glossary of Terms

Stretch Goal - A broad goal that is inherently appealing because it represents a larger vision for the organization/product, such as “becoming the world-leader” in your field. Strong marketing objectives contain both stretch goals and incremental goals.

Yo no lo traduciría literal, como metas de estiramiento, aunque uno pudiese tener la tentación. Lo que en mi opinión sucede es que los anglosajones nos llevan siglos en leguaje de marketing y los correspondientes conceptos en español vienen decenios después, y hay que esperar a que alguno se "asiente" convenientemente.

Buena suerte con esta opción, de la cual estoy casi seguro, Luis. Un gusto saludarte.
