In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Mars Discovery District speaks with Erika Moses, the co-founder and chief marketing office of Hyr. The idea behind the business is to help people earn money when they need it, while helping businesses acquire extra hands when they need them.

Moses shares oftentimes unplanned events could often lead to tricky times, which could even affect the companie's ability to make payroll. At a certain point, Moses recounts realizing there was only $0.08 in the company's bank account, around the time the company was expected to make payroll. With ample grit and awareness that finances would be coming into soon, Moses and her executives could continue to lead.
