    Honestly?

    I think that A looks better. Do take into consideration the comments made by others.

    BUT

    The question might be better posed as 'Which design serves the client better?'

    Personally, I think that, from the outside, option B looks like fewer non-computer people would have problems using / reading the site. The text is bigger, header text will be read by readers for the visually impaired, news text is easier to read, etc. Also, by having the 'How can we help?' options in A as part of a drop down menu, I can guarantee that some potential clients are going to miss it.

    That being said, B looks a little clunky and some elements look out of place (ie. the special offers section).

    Maybe re-pitch by integrating some of these elements into option A? That way you might have less resistance to what you're trying to introduce (ie. your client and the client's current customers are familiar with parts of the site so that it doesn't look like something that's drastically different from the last version...
