I am not happy with this feature, I think it is a disgrace that you spend a great deal of money advertising on Facebook to get fans, and once you have them Facebook want to charge you again to make sure they get your messages -

Buyer beware!!! now the tests are over and the system has gone gone worldwide, very disappointed. i run facebook page with over 30K of followers, if I use the promote function, I get 10% more reach, all fine and good a few more likes of the post it self maybe not very significant amount all told, but if you look deeper I do not not gain new page likes actual I get a large increase i un-likes for my page.why this is all promoted post mark sponsored facebook users do not like stuff pushed on them through friends etc, fine but not really stuff paid for. So why should i pay to prompt my post, I cant think of a reason, unless facebook actually promotes to Followers who actually like to see my post Ie. like the fist 10 to 15% who do for free anyway, why pay for more and shoot your self in the foot and loose followers of your page. never going to use again unless there is a significant change. if i post very regularly I can get the same reach with out the negative affect of a sponsored post. What are facebook

Yup. Pretty inexpensive way to ensure posts reach all your fans, I'd say.
