The interviewer can learn a lot about you from this question. You will want to appear confident without being arrogant, and you will want to discuss several of the attributes and personality traits that the interviewer is looking for in an account manager. Namely, that you are friendly, communicative, capable, honest, proactive, client-focused, and smart.
"I think that my clients would consider me a friendly, pleasant, and genuine person. I work hard to establish solid client relationships that are based on trust. Consequently, I believe that they would also say that I am trustworthy and that I won't waste their time. If I'm contacting them about a product or new feature, I make sure it is something that will be of value to them. Additionally, I think I would be described as someone who is intelligent and a good listener; I spend time truly listening to what the client's challenges are and I proactively offer solutions."

I think that my clients would consider me a friendly and down-to-earth person. They would say I'm someone who adds value to their practice and business. They would also consider me an honest person who is clear about what my products and services can and cannot do and that when I make them a promise I go out of my way to make sure I fulfill it.
