This is the most likely answer. She probably pays contracted pilots per day. I don’t know a whole lot about corporate aviation, but I believe this is a common model. Some of the rarer type ratings can score several thousand a day.

I fly a 7X in Texas and have met her CP on the road before. Her guys are very well paid and have a good QOL as evidenced by the fact there is very little turnover in her flight department. Based on industry pay in that region for her airplane(s) Her director/Chief Pilot should be making somewhere around or over 450K plus benefits and Captains around 350/400 plus benefits. Nashville is an expensive place to live so gotta pay well or they’ll just go to delta/AA and deal with the commute to ATL/CLT
