    Best Companies for Job Growth

    1. Scooter Store



    Job growth: 51%
    U.S. employees: 2,173
    2010 Best Companies rank: 38

    Not to be confused with those zippy little rides for kids, the Scooter Store specializes in medical power chairs for seniors -- and is no fad. The company notched some impressive job growth last year thanks to the aging baby boomer population and a strategic marketing shift.

    Instead of relying on television advertisements, the Scooter Store bulked up its sales force to court doctors and assisted living facilities directly, with much success. New positions have also opened up for those who provide delivery, service and administrative support across the country.

    Although Executive Vice President Mike Pfister doesn't anticipate the same level of growth that the company experienced last year, he estimates it will remain in the double digits. "We try to provide an alternative for going to a nursing home," he said, and "people believe in our ideology."

    Betting on the self-inflicted decrepitude and immobility of Americans is a solid bet.

    Yeah, but it is the preferred transport of Tea Party goers as they protest in the streets of Washington.

    Rare that I agree with boutons, but he's spot on here.
