Testimonials
Greg Ward
Joe is a consummate professional... genuine, giving, creative, ultimately directable and can understand and deliver on even the most obscure references. Yet, he generally needs very little actual direction. My favorite is, once we have a take we like and one that certainly would do the trick, in order to let him cut loose a little, warmer, more character, more fun... I like to ask him to turn up the “Joe-love” just one notch. Nothing more be said. Joe Cali will nail it for you.

Tommy Bruno - WAPS
The voice of, and the person Joe Cali, is responsive; skilled, and adaptive. The continuum of tone ranges continues to astound me with an ease that exudes confidence without ego, or shtick.
Sid Blair
have hired many different people for voice over talent, but Joe Cali exceeds them all. I fondly refer to him as "The Voice," because he's so good at what he does. Joe is the consummate professional and his ability to learn scripted material on the fly is exceptional. Whenever I need someone who can come in and do the job quickly and exceed my expectations, it is Joe. Joe is easy to work with and has even assisted me in refining scripts when they have an uneven flow. He's the best and any firm that hires him can rest assured that they are working with one of the most talented individuals in the advertising business.
