    The difference between those two is that current customers are more likely to buy from you. If they have purchased ANYTHING from you before it means they trust you. And if they are still your customers it means they are likely to buy from you again.

    New customers are not hard to sell to IF you know what their needs, or troubles, are.

    All in all, they are both helpful in growing your business. You need both kinds.

    In my opinion both. How can you choose between them? The customers that you have are an established sales base. Well, new ones are the future ... So in my opinion, you need to work with them in the same way.

    You should be working on both, finding new customers and engaging your current customers. Customer engagement help boost lifetime value of current customers and you can sell more to them.
