eventually, YES.
We cannot just rely on our existing customers. Competitors might just be around the corners and will soon attract your existing customers. In business world, we must adopt change, innovate and competitive in the market to gain profit. Profit is the very essence of having a business.

Both "Yes" &"No" -
Why "NO"? :-
It depends on type of products you deal with or Industry you are referring to.
The main component's of success for an company is 'Horizontal & Vertical Growth'. If it is happening but your customer base is not increasing than there are chances you are either dealing in 'Niche Market Segment' or 'Bottle Neck Entry Barrier Industry'. (OR)
Market is over matured thus has huge competitor's selling Identical products thus, getting new customer's is hard not only for your company but for everyone. The best is to continue to service existing customer base & find ways of selling other products which the existing customer's are buying from other places thus increasing dependability thus building an Network of "Loyal Customer base". (OR)
WHY "YES"?
If the Market is also growing by increased flow of customer's but 'You are not growing in terms of 'Tapping New customer's' than there is a problem.
It could be that new customer's are not finding what they are seeking thus not attracted towards your company.
The risk is existing customer's too may start getting interesting deals outside thus eroding your existing base thus eventually if drastic steps are not taken then surely 'It's an Nose dive' & leading towards 'Risk of Collapse' or 'Disaster'.
Thus, company if falls in this situation should adopt based on the changes in the business environment & engage with the prospective customer's & attract them towards your products.
That's why leaders say, there is nothing constant in the world except one thing "CHANGE".
As a company or as a person we should adopt it thus to be competitive & withstand challenges & overcome our objectives. :-)
