We have a small statement on the Nine Four website which advises new clients as to our current availability.

In general we need between 3 and 4 weeks notice to fit any significant new work in, so rather than continually update the availability statement or explain that we need 3 or 4 weeks lead time, I just used the PHP date function.

<p class="availability">Were available to work on new projects from the 21st of March 2009.</p>

Simple really but I just thought I’d share.
