The interviewer is looking to see if you'll put in the long hours of grunt work to reap the rewards of a stable pipeline of business. People often focus on the wins of sales when talking about their career. For instance, they focus on the commission or the closing of a big account, but they will gloss over the hours and years of work it took to get to that point.
It's vital that you show you know you're not going to 'phone it in' and have your career, customers, and commissions handed to you without a lot of sweat and hard work. With that said, answer honestly. Put your spin on it. Don't say, 'Yes, of course.' Give it some thought and make the answer truthful and accurate to you.
