  You can look at this post that explains how to schedule a workflow to execute recursively each day:

  Try call your workflow in .net app, the run the .net app as scheduled job.

  Something like this:

              try

              {

                  ExecuteWorkflowRequest request = new ExecuteWorkflowRequest();

                  request.WorkflowId = new Guid("yourparentworkflowid");

                  request.EntityId = new Guid("recordid");

                  ExecuteWorkflowResponse response = (ExecuteWorkflowResponse)OrgService.Execute(request);

              }

              catch (Exception ex)

              {

              }
