‘Most corporations that stopped supporting Planned Parenthood were boycott targets for many years. The change of heatt did not come because the company was going under.

De-emphasize the fact that you will not be doing business with the company. Concentrate on education and areasoned plea rather than the threat of an economic impact. ‘Why should one boycott a corporation if it plays such a small part in the overall effort? The most important reason is that you do not ‘want to cooperate with evil or help make it possible for others to do evil.
