The correct answer is **Fewer salesclerks**.

Internet retailers often have lower operating costs because they typically require fewer employees, such as sales clerks, compared to brick-and-mortar stores. This reduces labor costs significantly. Additionally, they do not have the same overhead expenses related to maintaining a physical storefront, such as rent and utilities, contributing to their lower operating costs.
