"Sometimes it's important to have a season where things are complicated to understand and to learn new things but the first aim is always to get 40 points in the Premier League," Guidolin told reporters on Thursday.
"But it's important we don't lose our identity. I want my team to play good football and achieve results."
Swansea stand to benefit from Premier League's 5.14 billion pounds ($7.42 billion) domestic television rights deal, with the new manager hoping to strengthen his squad.
Guidolin, however, said the final decision regarding the recruitment process will lie with chairman Huw Jenkins.
"I can talk only about the characteristics of new players, then the decision is down to the club," the 60-year-old added.
"But I spoke to the chairman about my favourite shape and I spoke to him about the characteristics of new players."
Swansea, who are 11th in the table, end their league campaign against fourth-placed Manchester City at the Liberty Stadium on Sunday.
