Launch Facebook Promoted Posts in Minutes

Facebook has made available Promoted Posts.  The idea behind promoted posts is to get your posts into the News Feed of your fans and their friends.

All promoted posts will show in the news feeds of the people who like your Page and, when they interact with the post, to their friends. These posts will be labeled as "Sponsored" in the news feed. Promoted posts will not be shown in the right-hand column of Facebook as an ad normally would.  Thus, other than the words "Sponsored" they appear as a normal post would

To create a Promoted post:

1.  Go to the sharing tool to create a post you normally would.

2.  Enter your post details.  Create the eye-catching headline that will engage your fans.

3  Click on the Promote drop-down button and set your desired budget. The budget you set is a lifetime budget and not a daily budget.

4.  Click Save

Note: that the budget you set for your promoted post is a lifetime budget that will run over the entire duration of your promoted post. Just like with ads, you may be billed daily to the primary funding source you’ve designated in your Ads Manager, and only for the amount that is used to run your campaign. You can view your primary funding source as well as access invoices from the gear drop-down in the "Promote" button, or from your Ads Manager.

Promote any post you've created in the last 3 days.

1.  Go to any post you've created in the past 3 days on your Page timeline
2.  At the bottom the post, just below where people can add a comment, you'll see the Promote button. Click on it.

Note:  Pages need to have at least 400 likes before Promoted Post is available for that page.
