Some providers offer packages starting at $80 a month, but those are usually older model servers being sold cheap to keep them in service. Most entry level servers start at around $149 a month and can go up to $400 depending on how many extras you add.
Your looking at $150+ for a budget low end server and up to $1000+ for a high end server. And you're probably better going with managed unless you have a IT server guy. Because it's very easy to mess up a server if you don't know what you're doing. And your server provider is going to charge $50+ to reload the OS!

If your provider charge you to reload the OS, just look for another one. There are several unmanaged dedicated servers available from $50, with a control panel to reinstall your server when you want without any extra fees. If you are going to pay more than 200$/mo for a server, look for a freelancer to setup your server and provide you support when needed.
Since you are just starting your business than shared hosting will be a great option for you. You may later upgrade your hosting to VPS or dedicated server if you need more space and bandwidth. Otherwise shared hosting works great. There are many good shared hosting providers like Siteground, Dreamhost, Inmotionhosting etc.
A decent dedicated server may cost $200-$1000 per month. But as you are saying that you don't have much traffic, you can go for a VPS. Everything will be under your control and cost will be reduced enough.
