That sounds good in theory but I think in practice, at least in the relatively broken representative system in the US, I'm not so sure. Consider that politicians often operate against the will of ~49% of their constituents. As long as they can maintain a majority, they don't care as much about the minority. I don't think a company, operating in a healthy non-monopolized marketplace, would be as willing to lose 49% of their customers.
