Clarksville Weekly Market Snapshot from Frazier Allen for the week of August 27th, 2017
Clarksville, TN – Next week, the economic calendar picks up, with the important figures (nonfarm payrolls, ISM manufacturing) arriving as market participants get set for the three-day weekend.

Clarksville Guns And Archery
Clarksville, TN – When John McConnell opened Clarksville Guns and Archery, he felt that Clarksville just didn’t have the type of store that appealed to him.
“When I went to purchase a gun for my wife, there wasn’t a store in the area that catered to the ‘new’ gun owner, and there was really a lack of customer service,” McConnell said. “Not everyone is a gun expert and new customers are who I want to cater to. I want them to become a responsible gun owner.”
In 2012, McConnell opened his business with one thing in mind and that was customer service. When you walk into his store on Golf Club Lane, you’re greeted by the staff immediately.
