With all do respect, that landing page does not look that good to be so important. As somebody here already said, the real SEO problem is in your home page. Using landing page to "cover for it" is just ... well covering for it. Instead of fixing what's wrong with your home page you just put a landing page and you thing you solved the problem. This is not the way you should resolve problems, especially if you offer web design and development services.
Look at it as using tables in page layout. You can use them for simple layouts and nobody will notice. You won't loose customers, everything looks the same as the one with divs and there is no reason you should change it. Wrong. Tables are meant to be used for presenting tables. Not making layouts. It's the same analogy with landing pages. They also have a purpose and you should not use them for covering up your SEO problems. They should be used when visitors have to choose something before they can proceed to the site (like language, region, age). For example http://www.asus.com/entryflash.htm They need a landing page because they have separate sites for different countries.
Back to the basics of web design. In web design everything should have a purpose. Tables do one thing, landing pages do the other, they were made to serve a particular purpose. Misusing them will only lead you to more trouble and more impotently, you won't learn the right way to do things.
So pleas, if you don't have a real reason to put a landing page, just don't. Covering up is not a reason
