Your name and home address are everywhere — and that’s a problem! In this episode of the Main Street Business Podcast, Mark J. Kohler and Mat Sorensen break down practical, legal ways to keep your personal info off public records while still running your business and owning assets the right way. You’ll learn why manager-managed LLCs beat member-managed, how to use registered agents and privacy addresses, what PO boxes can and can’t do, and when a Wyoming holding LLC (or similar) adds a layer of anonymity.
We also cover the six states that require an in-state street “ghost” address, the difference between privacy (camouflage) and asset protection (bulletproof vest), and real-world scenarios for landlords, investors, and anyone with growing visibility. If you’ve ever worried about tenants, stalkers, or just unwanted mail at your front door, this step-by-step playbook will help you tighten things up without breaking the bank.
