Jason, It depends on the offer. If what you're offering is compelling enough, people will fill out more fields. If you're asking for personal information that doesn't seem (from the customer's POV) to be relevant, you've either got to do a good job explaining how collecting this data benefits THEM, or the offer has to be so worthwhile, it overcomes their resistance.
