About Open Late Collective

Open Late Collective is a boutique fractional CX partner for DTC and CPG brands. We embed inside your team to optimize the entire customer experience, from the support inbox out to the operational gaps that create tickets in the first place.

Our focus is making CX work harder for the business. We audit and tune your Gorgias setup, rebuild workflows and macros, and dial in your AI Agent and automations to get the most resolution out of them without losing the human touch. We keep a human in the loop where it matters, so automation handles volume while your team owns the moments that build loyalty. We also turn voice of the customer signal into changes that actually stick.

The result is a support operation that resolves faster, costs less to run, and keeps more customers coming back. We work with a deliberately small roster so every brand gets senior strategic attention, not a ticket queue. Think of us as an extension of your team rather than an agency bolted on after the fact.

A total shift in how we handle support.

We went from reactive firefighting to a system that actually prevents issues before they escalate. Our CSAT scores have never been higher.
Response times finally match how fast we grow.

Before this, our support queue was our biggest bottleneck. Now our team resolves tickets faster and customers actually notice the difference.

Jess and the OLC team have been crucial members of our team since day 1. They fully own our customer experience and I have full trust that they handle every ticket with the care and attention consumers deserve. They are quick to respond, attentive to the business' needs, and truly feel like an extension of our internal team. So thankful for them!

Jess was instrumental in improving our SMS strategy and automations for a better customer experience. She's great at spotting where updates are needed, using CX feedback and common questions as a guide. She didn't just flag issues, she jumped on calls and walked me through fixes step by step, an approach we then applied to email and website too. She and her team make complex work simple, always keeping the customer at the center.

Open Late Collective worked closely with us to build out processes and get the most out of our CX systems, with bi-weekly calls to dig into questions, brainstorm ideas, and provide ongoing training for our team. They were also hands-on with our subscription platform, jumping into the day-to-day to support bugs, issues, and platform upgrades so our customers always had the best possible experience. It's clear they genuinely care about both our team and our customers. We'd highly recommend!
A True CX Partner That Unlocked Gorgias for Us

Open Late Collective has helped us in a tremendous way. Before them, we were not optimizing or using Gorgias to its full potential and we were barely scratching the surface. After Open Late Collective came in, it really took us to the next level. They helped with our FAQs, our chatbot, our help articles, and our overall CX strategy. They showed us what Gorgias can truly do for a brand like ours. Very grateful for this team and Jess Cervellon.
