How do I get Google to crawl white papers that displays a form for human visitors?

I have been looking into this and understand that I need to set the form up as a GET form which has been done. Google said they want you to "avoid" forms that require personal information but to what extent do they want you to do that?

The form is used as a lead generator so we need to collect information such as name, company name, email, ect.The information we require currently is: Name, Company name, Email, Phone Number and Number of employees.  Once a user puts in their information they have access to the rest of the content and they don't need to re-enter the information in so I assume once Google gets past this feature they can gain access to the rest of the content.

I understand that I need to have a form that doesn't ask for personal information which is the dilemma. So what should we do to work around this? Is there a solution that will allow me to obtain some personal information while still allowing Google to crawl the pages?

Thoughts and any feedback is much appreciated,

TJ

Check out Google's First Click.

Implementation of this allows you to include restricted content in Google's main index.

I think it could help with what you want to achieve.

I think I might be misunderstanding something here but here goes.

In an ideal world Google would index the white papers. > Users would reach your site on keyword searches that are within your white papers (now indexed by Google). > before seeing papers they have to compete the form?

This is what you want to achieve?
