Notability concerns
I don't think Mr. Ballard is noteworthy. This is a subtle area of notability because he does appear in a number of news articles, but is not the subject of the articles himself. I think this falls under WP:INVALIDBIO where "person A has a relationship with well-known person B, such as being a spouse or child, is not a reason for a standalone article on A (unless significant coverage can be found on A)." In this case Mr. Ballard has business relationships with his various notable clients. Other spokespeople do not have their own Wikipedia articles, such as Trudy Muller, who is Apple's spokesperson and also appears in many news articles. Fnordware (talk) 16:01, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Point on Trudy Muller, however Ballard is also a strategist for the Democratic party and more than just a spokesperson. The difference between him and other spokespeople is the amount of varying types of people/events/teams he speaks for i.e. not solely speaking on behalf of Apple. His career starts in 2000 and has continued to make newsworthiness to pass nobility from my purview. Lolita1992 (talk) 20:16, 25 March 2016 (UTC)

This Wikipedia appears to be a resume/advertisement for the subject. In my view, it violates Wiki rules regarding publicity and should be expunged. I inserted a new "Resume" subheading under "Career to illustrate my point. Bonhomem (talk) 02:06, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
