How about making them such a high percentage that it would genuinely impact their bottom line and not a measly amount calculated as "cost of doing business"

4% of gross revenue is not a negligible amount. For no company.

Probably, but it would depend on how much gross revenue they make on said practice, and how often they get a fine.

Start at 100% and work down from there?
