Also, all of the designs in the top 10 use gradients which means that you would be printing in full color. Full color printing is in many cases more cost effective than 2-3 color printing thanks to advances in digital printing. If you have any questions please let me know. Thanks.
Sorry,, it was a typo, I like the change. Can we see the font darker. We're dealing with an older clientele and want to make it as easy as possible for them to read it.
Before shying away from full-color printing check out some of the prices at a company like americasprinter.com. You can print 1000 business cards (traditional printing, not digital) for $49. That's more than most places charge for 2 color jobs and the stock is not as good.
Any designer should be able to provide you with your logo in full color and spot color so you have options for printing in different methods.
