Twitter is a service where you post messages of 160 characters or less. There are no signatures. You could add your company link in your portfolio. If you tweet about nothing but your business link in an attempt to drive traffic inorganically - your twitter following will not grow at all.

Yea, no such thing as a signature on twitter.

Of course, you can put whatever you'd like in your bio box on your twitter profile page, including your business link.

However, like was mentioned in the previous reply, twitter is not a service driven by marketing messages.

As a rule of thumb, post 1 self-promotional message or link to your own content for every 10 messages that you post in general.

Promote other content that you like, send personal messages about your daily activity, etc.

Don't blatantly self-promote, you won't get anywhere.

Twitter is not powered by self-promoting marketers.

It is a social atmosphere where only those who give genuine value to their market, and then promote their own relevant content sparingly, flourish.

As a rule of thumb, submit one self-promoting post for every 10 messages that you post.

Talk about other people's content that you like, send personal messages about your daily experiences, and then promote your services in between all of that.

It should seem very natural.

Hope this helps.
