The difference between "markedly" and "prominently" is a subtle one indeed. In your sentence (b) is the better answer because "prominently" is more commonly used to refer to physical placement than "markedly" is. (Keep in mind that this does not mean "prominently" is
only used in matters of physical placement.) In your example, the sentence is trying to emphasize the physical placement of the business name and logo on the poster.
