Enterprise had the potential to unite all the fans of the different ST franchises.
Considering all of the references to origin issues that were brought up in all the different series you could have done 5 years of stories that explained why the federation is the way it was.
You could get star trek fans by advertising how enterprise was going to explain how something happend and taking clips from the original shows to make the point.
Imagine an add running with ST:NG featuring picard saying that first contact with the klingons started the 200 year civil war. And then saying that enterprise was going to explain what was done wrong.
Or the story that explained why the romulans split from the vulcans
or the mistake that cause ta' pel to create the prime directive.
or the creation of section 31 when the federation charter was created and the slow progressive change from a top secret branch of star fleet security into the clandestant organization it was in DS9.
It should have been a prequel show the problem was combining the two shows added that time travel crap to the methos and killed the entire franchise.
