When you're freelancing, it's all about have a good client base of regular/repeat clients that make regular/repeat purchases. I and many successful freelancers will tell you that it's absolutely essential to having these clients as they are/will be your main bread and butter!
And that's great if they are making regular purchases from you. That is all part of building a residual income stream and is why you need to provide every one of your clients (both new and old) an excellent first class rate service.
But you might have to put in a bit more leg work with new clients. You may have to tip toe around them and put some effort into helping them and answering their questions etc. Which all takes up your time and energy and there's no guarantee they will buy.
But that's not the case with your regular old clients. You know them. They know you. You may even be on first name terms. You know what they want. And they know what to expect. So it's a bit easier from that perspective.
So knowing this, which would you prefer?
To get more clients or to just work for your regular clients only?
If so which and why? Or do you just prefer both?
To have regular clients and to get new clients too?
You probably will do anyway but which do you prefer to work for?
For your regular clients, or for any new clients you get and why?

Old Clients
Old clients are already aware of how you function on the marketplace. They are aware that you are a serious seller, and would willing to assist for whatever issues the buyer may have. They trust you to get work done within a reasonable amount of time.
New Clients
New clients are unaware of how you function, how long it takes to get an order done. And they are unsure just how serious you are.
I would rather have both because it creates a nice balance. You don't want the same old buyer buying from you, and never get new clients, that is horrible for business. What if the old clients decide they don't want to order from you any longer? You'll have no choice but to seek out new clients. I would prefer to do both.
