Talking about salary and compensation expectations can be uncomfortable, but it is a necessary conversation between yourself and the hiring manager. The interviewer knows that working in a pure commission environment can create additional stress. He is trying to determine if you are proactive enough to constantly strive toward reaching your goals. Be forthcoming about your current compensation plan, and be positive about your abilities to achieve success even without a guarantee.

"I have worked on 100% commission before in sales positions; so I am familiar with the stress that can come along with it. Currently, I am on a compensation guarantee of 4K/month or full commission, whichever is greater. I would be very interested in learning about your plan if you wouldn't mind sharing it with me."
